Do Admit: 'A total treat' (Sunday Times) for fans of the Mitford sisters, Mimi Pond
In English, 444 two-colour pages, Hardcover, 19 x 4 x 23.6 cm, Jonathan Cape, October 2025
Scandalous, passionate and glamorous - a stunning graphic biography of the six sisters who made their way in the twentieth century, seducing their peers, the press and then the rest of the world. As a young girl living in the sunny suburbs of California in the 1960s, Mimi Pond fell in love with the Mitford sisters. Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Unity, Jessica, and Deborah Mitford brought the glitz of society, the pomp, the scandal, and the real (rainy) weather to their prosaic life. High-society debutantes known for rubbing shoulders with some of the most infamous fascists and communists in history, the sisters were also, in turn, talented writers, inveterate nickname makers, chicken-raising housewives, biting witties, and passionate adventurers in the maelstrom of the twentieth century Mimi Pond brings the Mitfords to life in this brilliant and carefully researched family biography.
